Why ClamAV reports SIW as infected with Exploit.DCOM.Gen?
SIW is not a virus. It has many functions;one of them is scanning the network (from menu Network --> Host Scans -->DCOM) for computers running DCOM.
Why ClamAV reports it as a virus? I don't know. Maybe they are searching for a specific sequence of bytes, sequence
used by SIW to detect if a computer has DCOM patches applied.

signature; ClamAV reports nothing.
